Lithion batteries have a long-known reputation for
"blowing up", "exploding", and catching on fire.
When I was with DOD R&D (with uncle sam) - I heard
of secure comm gear items catching fire and exploding
in this way.  The mechanics, chemistryimics, and
electrolytics of it all - I couldn't say.  I got A in
differential equations, but only B in chem 101 and
102.  I could minimize a mean karnaugh map tho!
My son-in-law MD, took every course in organic
chem, known to man.  I doubt he knows either.

I think the mil and dod used MUCH MUCH larger Li
battery packs tho.
